Arjun chose Krishna, though Krishna had vowed to lay down his arms on the battlefield ...
... Krishna asked: "Why did you pick me, knowing I would not fight?"
"I can handle the soldiers myself, O Krishna, if I have your presence to give me moral support. Some of your glory will surely rub off on me."

Mahabharata

Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost.
